Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg brought to room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Frosting and decorating
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup Butterscotch syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1-2 tablespoon heavy cream
- Harry Potter-inspired sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
- Cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Add the egg and the vanilla extract until and mix.
- Mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, and salt) until combined.
- Use a large cookie scoop and scoop out 7-8 equally sized cookie dough balls.
- Roll the dough into balls. Place the balls on the cookie sheet and flatten the cookies to ¾ inches in thickness.
- Bake for 12-13 min until lightly golden on the edges.
- Remove from the oven and let sit on the baking sheets for at least ten minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to fully cool.
- Decorating the cookies
- Using a hand or stand mixer, cream the butter until smooth.
- Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and heavy cream.
- Beat for 2 mins on low-speed
- Add the butterscotch syrup and beat on HIGH for 4 minutes, creating a very light and fluffy buttercream.
- Add the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a Tip 10 or 12
- Starting in the center of the cookie, pipe a dot and then make a tight circle around it. Continue this until the cookie is fully frosted. Immediately top with sprinkles.
Notes
- One key to soft, chewy cookies is to avoid overbaking them. Keep a close eye on your cookies during the last few minutes of baking, and remove them from the oven when they're just starting to turn golden around the edges. They may look a bit underbaked in the center, but they'll continue to cook and firm up as they cool.
- While the Harry Potter-inspired sprinkles are definitely a fun touch, if you can't find them, just use whatever sprinkles you have.
- These are big cookies. If you prefer smaller cookies, simply portion them into 12 cookies. Smaller cookies will bake faster, so start checking them a few minutes earlier than the recipe suggests.
- You can spread a thick layer of frosting with a knife if you don't feel like piping into swirls.
